Policies for this specific group of patrons seems like a bad idea. Anytime you are writing policy you have to be very careful about targeting specific people. The only differentiations I can think of that we have (and are commonly made) is children vs adults and non-profit vs for-profit entities. I can't see how are they really different from everyone else other or our expectations of them would be any different.

Supervised visits are becoming more and more frequent at our library, and with them come people that don't normally use the library, and don't know what behavior is expected.
Do any of you have specific policies for supervised visits, or have hand-outs to give parents and social workers? We have discovered finger-painting and clay work, along with lots of snacks happening in our kids room - plus general mayhem and messes.
We have patron behavior policies, but it would be nice to have something specific to this situation.
Thanks for any help you can give!
Happy Holidays!
